OpenStudy (anonymous):

And can you identify the radius of the circle ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It looks like it. And @RaphaelFilgueiras provided the general equation of a circle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the equation x^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Close --but remember that in the form: (x - x0)^2 + (y - y0)^2, the point (x0, -y0) is the center. So you would reverse the sign of (y + 1) to (y - 1)
